What is freedom anyway?
It's a word that's thrown around alot for various reasons and purposes. But, what exactly does it mean to be free as I go about doing life?
I had to look it up to see how it is defined.
Both noun definitions:
"the power to act or speak or think without externally imposed restraints"
or
'exemption': "immunity from an obligation or duty"
I think what it's saying is that --
Is it just that simple? Or, am I missing something?
I don't have to say, do, feel, act, behave in anyway that is not authentic and true to who I am. I don't have to feel bullied or act out of obligation or pressure or guilt. I can form my own opinions. I have the power to choose and make my own decisions. And, I don't have to be something that I'm not.
